Introduction: How to prevent black shield wasps from eating bees, there is no good way to drive away black shield wasps without hurting bees, in fact, there are more ways to prevent wasps, most of them are harmless to bees, or the harm to bees is relatively small. There are many types of wasps, of which the golden-ringed wasp has the greatest damage to bees, and the black shield wasp belongs to the small wasp, and the damage to the bees is less than that of the golden-ringed wasp, so let's take a look at how to prevent the black-shield wasp without hurting the bees.
<h1 class="ql-align-justify" > the habits of wasps and the harm they do to bees</h1>
First: the nesting habits of wasps
Wasps usually nest in relatively high trees, bushes, under the eaves, wall holes, caves and earthen caves, the general hive is a paper hive, divided into a single or multi-layer disc structure, the top has a relatively thick handle, the hive hangs on the handle, the hive spreads out from the middle to the surroundings.
Second: the harm of wasps to bees
Wasp damage to bees mainly in two ways, the general black shield wasp more in the nest door to hunt the bees in flight, but the golden ring wasp is much smarter, generally in the nest door to hunt bees, if the bee defense ability is poor, the golden ring wasp also a group into the nest characteristics, due to the golden ring wasp strength, the shell is hard, often a short time will cause a large number of bee deaths, light cause bees to be irritable, abandon the nest and escape, in general, the biggest harm to the bees is the golden ring wasp.
Third: the law of distribution
The activity law of the wasp has a tendency to distribute more in temperate areas, but in many places in China, the wasp is generally distributed in places below 1700 meters above sea level, with the difference in local temperature, the altitude of the wasp life is also different, the hotter places the height of the wasp can live at an altitude will increase, and the altitude of the wasp life in the colder place will also decrease.
Fourth: the law of activity
The activity law of the wasp also changes with the temperature change, such as the time of occurrence in Guangdong will be relatively early, the time of our Guizhou area will occur a little later, almost a month later than the Guangdong region, in the activity of the day, our Wasp in Guizhou is divided into two time activities, generally from 7 o'clock in the morning to 12 o'clock in the afternoon more frequent, there is a break time of about two hours at noon, but after the weather becomes cooler in the afternoon, it generally lasts from 3 pm to about 7 pm. The activity of vespas will also be affected by the weather, generally there will be less rainy weather, and after the rain will be more.
< h1 class="ql-align-justify" > prevention and control method</h1>
First: the slapping method
For the prevention and control method, the simplest way is to fight, because the wasp weighs higher than the bee, we just need to use a small wooden board to gently pat the wasp will be injured, even if it does not die will faint, we will catch it and put it on the beehive cover, after the observation of the bee tribe, such benefits have two, one is to intimidate other wasps, the other wasps will come to rescue the wasps placed on the hive, we find the opportunity to be afraid to fight again, there will be a very good effect in the time of the wasps, and a short time can kill a lot of wasps.
Second: the best time to kill vespas
For us to use the fear of fighting method to kill the wasp, in fact, it is only useful for fewer wasps, and it is best to use this way when the wasps first appear, do not wait for the wasps to flood before using. Vespa belongs to the social insects, but the wasp in the early spring is actually not gregarious, because the wasp in the autumn in the tail, and then after the tail of the queen wasp looking for a place to overwinter, in the spring these queens of the bee each look for nesting sites, nesting and laying eggs, so in the early spring we found the wasps, may be just overwintering queen, if we kill one, then it is equivalent to eliminating a nest of wasps, the effect is very obvious, which will reduce the probability of flooding of wasps after summer and autumn.
Third: set up a safe zone for the hive
Since the wasp is much larger than the middle bee, we can cover the nest door with barbed wire at the nest door, so that the bees are active in the hood, which greatly reduces the chance of the wasp attacking the bee, which will have a good effect.
Fourth: poisoning
There are more ways to kill poison, but the bee tribe thinks that a good way is to coat the honey poison killing method, this method is that we use bamboo poles and nylon nets to make a capture net, catch the wasps, and then apply honey to the chest of the captured wasps, pay attention not to be stung by the wasps, otherwise the toxicity is very strong, the pig coats the honey with cotton swabs to stick to the honey, and then put the wasps back to the nest, so put a dozen, basically the whole nest of wasps is destroyed.
The use of this method should pay attention to see if the wasp is directly flying away after releasing the wasp, generally the wasp that is caught is directly flying away after letting go, if we see the wasp continue to stay in the bee farm, close to the bee colony, to fight in time to eliminate, and then buried deeply to avoid harm to the bees.
Fifth: The bee mark looks for extermination
The individual of the wasp is relatively large, generally using the bee mark is very easy to find, the way is to catch the wasp that came to kill the bee, and then tie a thin line on the waist of the wasp, and then put a small piece of red or white feathers or light plastic paper on it, and then we observe the direction of the wasp flight, until the wasp disappears and then put the same wasp, so that we can find the wasp's nest, and after finding the nest, we will be eliminated according to the type of nest. The wasps in the general soil cave can be put into volatile toxic substances after plugging the hole, will soon be killed, the tree we can use long bamboo poles at night plus flammables, with long wool to lead the burning destroyed, but pay attention to avoid fire, if not a separate tree, there is a fire hazard, then wear a good wasp suit, take the honeycomb off with a sack, take it home with soup water to burn or burn directly.
